My son was driving a 2009 Hyundai Accent and rear ended a stopped vehicle. My son was doing approximately 40 mph and not one airbag is his car deployed. His car was inoperable and was totaled by the insurance company. I went to the Hyundai dealer, with pictures, to let them know there was some sort of problem with that car and the manager's response to me was "I wasn't the manager when that car was purchased". I tried explaining that I was there out of concern that if it happens to someone else, there could be some serious injuries but he only cared that "he was not the manager" when I purchased that vehicle.
My daughter, [xxx] , was involved in an automobile accident where she rear ended another car head on going approximately 30 miles an hour' which probably totaled her car and no airbags delpoyed not even the front ones.
